A BDSM club is a group that meets to discuss and explore the world of alternative sexuality. The club focuses on education and safety via discussions, workshops and seminars.
The BDSM community is a tight knit group that focuses on master-slave dynamics and mutual consent. It is also a great place to get erotic play advice and connect with fellow kinksters.
Forums
Many BDSM clubs have forums which can help you work your way into the events. These are specialised online kink communities that are designed to bring people together with similar interests. Unlike Reddit threads these are aimed solely at BDSM and have specific categories such as bondage, dominance, submissive and sadism. They also tend to be private and free to join.
One of the best places to start is iTaboo which has been around for a long time. This website is easy to use with advance search filters. Users can find people that match their interests which include fetishes such as clinging and confinement, clamps and clips, nun and priest play and even standard flogging. The site has a large number of members who are actively participating in the community and it isn’t as cliquey as some other BDSM communities.
Another great forum is FetLife which is specifically aimed at BDSM. There are a lot of fetishists who use this forum to discuss their fetishes and also to make friends in the BDSM scene. Its members are generally friendly and welcoming and the discussions can be very interesting. This site is private and not indexed by search engines making it a safe environment to talk about your kinks. The site also has a huge number of members which means there is always someone online to discuss your kinks with.
Meetups
A lot of people have been shocked by news that a Harvard club offers students a place to discuss kinky sex. But clubs focusing on bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadism and masochism have long been a staple of college life. Educators say they can be an important resource for students who are interested in exploring alternative sexualities.
These groups often have forums and blogs where members can share experiences, tips, and advice. Some are also social places for members to meet and play. They are a great way for students to get into the lifestyle before attending larger events.
Many BDSM clubs offer munches, which are social gatherings where there is often some play involved. These are the best way to connect with other BDSM enthusiasts and work your way into bigger kink parties. You can find BDSM munches in most cities and states. Most of them are geared towards doms, subs, and switches but you can also find one that is more open to beginners.
Some BDSM clubs will have some rules, such as not drinking during munches or requiring medical and mental health records. However, most will not require those types of information since they consider the privacy of their members to be very important. Moreover, they don’t want to be responsible for any unintended consequences, such as pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases.
Burger Munches
In BDSM, there are a number of ways to find people to meet with in a social setting. Some BDSM clubs host “munches,” which are a chance for members to get together in a public venue and have a light conversation. These munches are typically open to the public, and attendees may be able to watch others in play without being seen. Munches can be held in restaurants, coffee shops, and bars.
Munches can be a good place to make first-time contacts and to learn about BDSM culture. Many hosts are willing to talk about fetish topics, but it is best to avoid overt fetish wear. It is also best to avoid talking about kinky stuff in front of non-members, especially women. This can lead to what is called “swarming.”
A munch is typically a non-play event, but there are some that offer play opportunities. Some groups even have a sex library, which is a collection of fetish-related media that can be checked out by a member for a small fee or donation. This collection is usually overseen by a slave drew.
Some BDSM groups, like Mahogany Pleasures of Darkness, started as munches. These munches are usually attended by couples and singles. The group also has a chat room on its website, where members can communicate with each other.
Events
After last week’s widely reported news that Harvard students have a club for kinky sex, some may be surprised to know that BDSM clubs are not new. Rather, they’ve been around for quite some time, and sex educators say that’s a good thing. BDSM is an overlapping term for bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadism and masochism. It covers everything from tame experiences like blindfolding to intense ones like spanking or caning. BDSM is usually consensual and carries no risk of sexually transmitted disease or unintended pregnancy.
Many BDSM clubs organize events that are not only fun but also informative. These include classes and workshops on fetish topics that can help you learn more about what kinky play is all about. These are great for people who want to get started but don’t want to commit to a full-on BDSM party.
Another way to work your way up to a BDSM party is by attending a BDSM meetup or munch. These are social gatherings for kink lovers and are often held in private homes or venues such as nightclubs. Munches are a good place to start as they usually don’t involve any playing, but just socializing.
For those who are more comfortable with a little more kink in their life, it’s also common for BDSM clubs to host parties and events at local dungeons. These are specialized rooms that can be themed to fit any fetish. These can be a bit more intimidating for newcomers as they can draw a lot of attention from voyeurs and tourists who are interested in seeing the spectacle. Some clubs will try to discourage gawkers, but many do not.
